Super Lemon Haze Medical Marijuana Strain Review

FromRev. B. Baker/GreenFaith Ministries

Grade:  A-

Type:  Sativa-dominant hybrid [Lemon Skunk x Super Silver Haze from Green House Seeds]

Price:  Negotiable

Appearance:  (9/10)  One of the prettiest samples under a microscope we could hope for, this strain was absolutely loaded with tall and pristine trichomes that were mostly clear and cloudy.  It was a pale green overall with some purple striping on leaf veins and some calyxes to go along with deep orange hairs.  It wasn’t particularly dense but was very nicely dry and so covered in trichs that it flung them all over the place when cut with scissors or handled.

Aroma:  (6/10)  Though the scent wasn’t particularly pungent (especially after grinding, which was odd), it carried a lovely citrusy smell that had a slight sweetness and a flowery quality.  After sitting undisturbed for a while, the jar smelled of lemon zest, but that didn’t come out as strongly with the actual sample.  If it had been a more assertive scent, it would’ve gotten higher marks here… the smell was a bit hard to pick up at times.

Taste: (8/10)  It lived up to its name and produced a strongly lemony taste that also carried a vegetal/herby component that reminded one reviewer of celery.  That taste wasn’t prevalent though and it was mostly slightly-acrid lemony goodness.  The smoke was definitely expansive, but it was also extremely smooth and didn’t make us cough much at all.  The bowl burned away to a perfect white ash, indicating a quality flush pre-harvest.

Effects:  This strain hit hard right to the eyes, with a buzzing energy appearing all throughout the body and head.  It made us a bit restless, wanting to get up and walk around even while doing something sedentary like watching TV.  The head feeling was somewhat hard to place, but was basically swirling around all throughout the head, with a major concentration in the eyes.  It was very energetic and slightly spacey, almost like drinking a bit too much coffee and not knowing where to direct all the energy.  There were almost no Indica traits felt with this one, as it was purely energetic and buzzy throughout the experience, finishing clean as we returned to sober state.

Duration:  Long, 2.5 – 3 hours

Medicinal Traits: (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  Motivation, energy, anti-depression, mood elevation, possible ocular relief.

Overall:  Not for patients who can’t handle or don’t like the energetic and buzzy Sativas, this racy Haze didn’t leave us feeling cloudy mentally like many Hazes, but the busy and somewhat unfocused energy almost served to have the same affect.  It was a great daytime choice for those who don’t mind feeling almost jittery with energy and have things to do.  It’s really spectacular-looking and tasted just like you’d expect from the lineage, adding up to great “bag appeal”.  It didn’t really provide much pain relief or body high properties, so it’s best-suited towards alleviating mental issues such as lack of motivation or depression.  Nice summertime and outdoorsy meds!
